Car cover options?

Should I opt for the walmart/crappy tire versions? Or should I splurge on an OEM? Anyone have experience with both?

It'll be stored indoor at a condo garage so I guess I don't need a hardcore weatherproofed one.

Why not get an outdoor one, that way in the summer you could use it outside.

Get a Noah Car cover by Covercraft. They are the best. Fit perfect and are safe for your car.
I have had one for my 07 G35 sedan and now I have one for my 09 FX35. It has pockets for my mirrors, roof antenna etc. and it breathes. It costs a bit more but you get what you pay for.
Here is the one for your car http://www.carcoverworld.com/lookup....covers&pc=noah
Here is info about those covers: http://www.carcoverworld.com/noah.asp

Like everything else in life, you get what you pay for.

If you're not too worried about the car, I'd say get the less expensive Canadian Tire/Wal-Mart one. If you are worried, spend the extra money for something that'll last.

If you're interested, I have a weather shield HP (which is the next level up from the Noah) for sale. This is one of Covercraft's premium covers. I only used it two or three times and then was able to get a garage and never used it again. It's for the coupe and is gray colored. I even had the interior seams lined with felt so it wouldn't scratch the paint. This cover runs about $325. I'll let it go for $225 shipped.

Here is the chart comparing covercraft fabrics:

OEM one I got is pretty sweet, fits perfectly and even has clear area for the back license plate.
